The following article cites a Tasmanian study showing an increased risk of lymphoma, leukemia and multiple myeloma in those [...]

Decided last night that the onion smell = Larry. No matter how much I beg him to lay off the onions and garlic………. sigh!!! Uff Da!!!

Onions…..
Posted in Chemotherapy, Life Goes On, non-Hodgkins Lymphoma on June 26, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I don’t know if it’s the chemo but…..I’ve been smelling onions all day. Maybe I’ve absentmindedly left some onions lying around somewhere….that could be it, too. My brain is tired and not thinking straight. I’m glad that chemo is finally over and hopefully the “fog” will clear over the course of this [...]

It’s always interesting to see what search engine terms people use to find my blog. Most of them are people looking for lymphoma blogs or information about chemo and Rituxan. Some of them, though, are pretty funny! Last week, someone found my blog by searching: “how much poo normally comes out of a polar bear”. [...]
“Unsave” the Date
Posted in Life Goes On on June 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
A while back I suggested saving this Sunday, June 22nd, as a potential date for Amanda’s senior recital. Her piano and voice teacher will be going on vacation tomorrow so we’ve had to look ahead to dates in August. At this point, we haven’t decided on a date but will announce it here when we [...]
